The Generation X Files: Crazy Cosplayers

The Generation X Files is a weekly podcast where one millennial (Tatiana) and one Gen Xer (Dan) battle it out over pop culture.

Saratoga Comic Con is this weekend, there will people dressed in costumes and they call it cosplay. Cosplay is a cultural phenomenon that I understand but at the same time don’t understand at all. You can find out all about my confusion regarding Cosplay in this episode of The Generation X Files.

Tatiana has Cosplayed before and so have I, apparently. Coincidentally, this episode was recorded on a day where I spent the majority of the day dressed in a costume, but I was working and not playing. It was a long day of work for Tatiana and I and it reflects in this episode of The Generation X Files. It seems that podcasting after a long day of work made Tatiana and I extra silly and extra vulgar.

If you plan on going to Saratoga Comic Con, I suggest that you listen to this episode because it will teach you the ‘do’s and do nots’ of cosplay. If you are an experienced cosplayer and you plan on going to Saratoga Comic Con, I suggest that you listen to this episode and tell us what we got right and what we got wrong. If you listen to the episode and you don’t like what you hear, it’s probably because you’re a geeky dweeb stick, or a nerd burger, who is going to go and play dress up with a bunch of other dorks at the gathering of make-believe.
